x86/resctrl: Prevent NULL pointer dereference when reading mondata
When a mon group is being deleted, rdtgrp->flags is set to RDT_DELETED in rdtgroup_rmdir_mon() firstly. The structure of rdtgrp will be freed until rdtgrp->waitcount is dropped to 0 in rdtgroup_kn_unlock() later. During the window of deleting a mon group, if an application calls rdtgroup_mondata_show() to read mondata under this mon group, 'rdtgrp' returned from rdtgroup_kn_lock_live() is a NULL pointer when rdtgrp->flags is RDT_DELETED. And then 'rdtgrp' is passed in this path: rdtgroup_mondata_show() --> mon_event_read() --> mon_event_count(). Thus it results in NULL pointer dereference in mon_event_count(). Check 'rdtgrp' in rdtgroup_mondata_show(), and return -ENOENT immediately when reading mondata during the window of deleting a mon group.
